Los Angeles Lakers coach JJ Redick offered a strong criticism of one of his players, Bronny James, after a poor performance on Tuesday evening. Bronny, the son of NBA icon LeBron James, has been bouncing back and forth between the NBA and the G-League this season.

He got some run on Tuesday night in a game against the Philadelphia 76ers, but didn't perform to his best. Bronny didn't score a single point - shooting 0-5 from the floor and 0-3 from 3PT range - as the Lakers fell 118-104. Speaking to the media after the game, Redick didn't paint the most positive picture of Bronny's evening - but he didn't exactly discard him either.

'It just felt like on a back-to-back, just him giving us energy I think was the goal. I maybe put him in a tough spot flying up yesterday and, you know, nationally televised game in Philly,' Redick told reporters.
